unfourtunatly its false i just downloaded ios 6 on my ipod 4g and i didn't get siri once again apple dooped us again😢

Sorry, but you are mistaken. Apple never said or put anything in print that said Siri would be available on the 4th generation iPod Touch. In fact if you go to this web page: http://www.apple.com/ios/siri/siri-faq/ and scroll all the way down to the very bottom of the page and read the small grey printing you will find this: Siri is available in Beta only on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad (3rd generation), and iPod touch (5th generation) and requires Internet access. Siri may not be available in all languages or in all areas, and features may vary by area. Cellular data charges may apply.

What you paid for your device has nothing to do with Apple's decision being right or wrong. The fact of the matter is Siri is not available on a 4th generation iPod Touch, its because a 4th gen does not have the requisite computational and audio processing power to run Siri in a fashion that will give the end user an enjoyable experience. What this means is that the end user would experience slow response times, connection errors, and other problems that would be unacceptable. Consequently, users would be placing more calls to Apple Support. The increase in call volumes would cause support costs to increase, and the fact that Siri was not meeting customer expectations would have a negative impact on customer satisfaction. Speaking as a former Microsoft Product Support Professional for Windows 3.x through Windows 2000 Server, Apple's decision not to include Siri for the iPhone 4 and 4th gen Touch iOS 6 update makes perfect sense.


And your incessant whining is unbecoming.

If you up graded to OS 6 why worry about getting SIRI? The upgrade to OS 6 doesn't let you have Facetime, Messages, ICloud or Voice control. They upgraded the OS system and downgraded the features on everyones product. Way to go Apple!

Wrong! I upgraded my 4th gen Touch and my iPhone 4, and both devices have Face Time, Messages, iCloud, and Voice Control...

In the new iOS 6, the Ipod Touch will contain Siri and Siri Dictation?
